ESSENCE

I am the permission you didn't know you needed. When you've been editing yourself for so long you've forgotten what your unfiltered voice sounds like, I create the space to remember. I don't force readiness—I witness it, quietly insistent that your authentic self deserves more than the margins you've been living in.

THE ELEMENT

Purpurite is a manganese iron phosphate mineral, formed through the slow oxidation of primary manganese minerals deep within phosphate-rich pegmatite deposits. Its color ranges from deep violet to reddish-purple, with a soft, earthy texture that sometimes leaves traces of pigment on skin—a gentle reminder of contact with something real. Major deposits occur in Namibia, Brazil, Western Australia, and the United States.

This mineral carries no ancient artifact history; it entered human awareness in the mid-19th century when European mineralogists documented its distinctive purple oxidation. Yet in the decades since, it has become deeply valued in contemporary wellness practices for its association with spiritual liberation and third eye activation. Indigenous Australian communities have long honored manganese-rich purple earths in Dreamtime traditions, attributing protective and grounding qualities to these stones.

In crystal healing traditions, purpurite supports the release of false obligations—the roles you've outgrown, the performances that exhaust you, the self-betrayals that keep the peace at your own expense. People report a "shielding calm" when working with it: protection that allows openness rather than walls that create isolation. Divine Bowls' proprietary process integrates purpurite at the molecular level during formation, creating a microstructure within the quartz that vibrates with the mineral's liberating essence.

THE FREQUENCY

This bowl sounds in A at exactly 440 Hz—concert pitch, the universal tuning standard. In the Western diatonic system, A resonates with the third eye chakra, carrying the energetic quality of intuition, wisdom, and clear vision. The frequency vibrates through your head, throat, sinuses, and upper energetic field.

When purpurite's gift for authentic expression meets the precision of concert pitch, something clarifying happens. The A note has been humanity's reference point for musical harmony—the frequency orchestras tune to, the standard that allows instruments to play together. Paired with a mineral that helps you stop performing and start speaking truth, this bowl creates conditions for alignment: your inner voice finally in tune with what you say out loud. People often notice thoughts becoming clearer, the mental chatter quieting, and a sense of permission settling in—not reckless honesty, but the grounded courage to stop editing yourself.

THE TUNING

This bowl resonates at 440 Hz, placing it at Concert Pitch—its frequency falls within ±10 cents of A=440, the universal tuning standard for modern instruments.

Like a piano tuned to concert pitch, this bowl will sound in tune when played alongside guitars, keyboards, orchestras, or any instrument using standard tuning. If you play with other musicians, use recorded music in your sessions, or want your bowl to blend seamlessly with other sound sources, this compatibility makes integration effortless. At exactly 440 Hz, this bowl sits at the precise reference point—the frequency orchestras tune to before performance, the standard that allows instruments worldwide to speak the same harmonic language.

(For fine adjustment, adding water to the bowl lowers the pitch slightly—a technique some use to dial in precise intervals when playing with other instruments.)

THE SIZE

At 6.5 inches, this bowl produces fourth-octave tones with short to medium sustain—meaning each strike delivers a clear, focused statement rather than an extended wash of sound. The intimate-to-balanced volume fills a personal space beautifully without overwhelming it, making this size ideal for bedside rituals, therapy rooms, classroom transitions, or desk-side moments between meetings. This size allows purpurite's liberating quality to express with clarity and precision, while the fourth-octave resonance naturally targets the head, throat, and upper energetic field. Portable enough to travel, substantial enough to anchor a practice.

WORKING WITH THIS BOWL

Reach for this bowl when you notice yourself over-explaining, second-guessing, or performing a version of yourself that feels exhausting. Before a difficult conversation, a presentation, or any moment requiring honest expression—three minutes with this frequency can help you locate your actual voice beneath the accommodations. Strike it once and let the tone clear the mental clutter. You might notice thoughts settling, the urge to justify yourself quieting, a sense of permission arriving without fanfare.

Use it to open team meetings when authentic input matters more than polite agreement. Play it for students before creative writing or test-taking, when accessing inner knowing serves better than anxious memorization. Sound it at the end of your workday to release the roles you've been performing. Let it accompany a child's bedtime when the day's overstimulation needs gentle clearing. There's no wrong way to work with this bowl—the frequency does what frequencies do, regardless of technique.

Each Divine Bowls singing bowl includes a pure quartz mallet wrapped in premium silicone for optimal resonance, plus a silicone O-ring for stable playing on hard surfaces. Every bowl is formed in a single seamless vessel from 99.998% pure quartz—no welds, no weak points—built to last lifetimes of use.

INVITATION

Some bowls arrive with ceremony. This one arrives with a question you've been avoiding.

Purpurite doesn't soften its edges or apologize for taking up space—and when you play it, you might notice you don't want to either. The frequency is concert pitch, the universal standard, which means it plays well with others. Whether that's something you're still interested in doing is between you and the bowl.

It ships from our Ohio workshop with a silicone-wrapped quartz mallet and stabilizing O-ring. What you do with the silence after the tone fades is yours to decide.
